Miriam Donohue...........who?
Well, she, "Plucks verbs and strings and all pretty things"!!!
Hi everybody. Sorry for the delay in posting but this is Mk2. If your ever find Mk1out in 'interweb' land keep it, it may be worthsummat one day!!!!
This is going to be one of those, new artists, ones to look out for and contact details, etc etc.
And just to let you know the next posting is one of those 'Essential' albums for your collection. But back to now.
These days everything folkie that comes my way is via David P Hope (@DavidPHope) and more than welcome I am too. He's a super musician and a great 'ear to the ground'! At the moment Ireland seems the place to be! Loads of new YOUNG talent (guess that's me not going over then?) playing because they enjoy it and the odd few Euro's help feed the cat!.....I have just realised that my laptop is so old it does not have a Euro key! Time for a new one, me thinks. Anyway back to Miriam.....
(thank you to the photographer they are great pics!)
She has quite a few tunes out on the Internet (you lucky people, good tunes and FREE). It's the Yorkshire man in me!
Follow the link to Miriam's website: www.miriamd.com. and you will find 'Magnolia Walls'. This was the first, (to me anyway). It was a 'get it on the list' from the off and that does not happen everyday! Next stop, Twitter and found her there too, (Christmas' coming at once!). She is also on that FB thing but I cannot seem to work it (my age). Last but not least get your mouse round to www.soundcloud.com/miriam-donohue. Where you can hear 'Street Car' another belter! Enjoy them and share them. I'm sure Miriam will be most 'gladified'!
I'm sure I will be back to rave about Miriam again. She had a concert (10th May @The Crane Bar with the one and only David Hope). And it went down a storm, so get yersens off to the next one.
I am not going to do a gig list for Miriam. A trip to to the website will solve that one.
Lets all give her well deserved support.
I also need tips on being an 'Uncle'. My Mum only produced me so no nieces or nephews. Well I'm over the moon to find that Miriam has adopted me as an 'Uncle'. Now does that mean all those birthdays and things are still current? So Miriam what would you like for your 1st birthday?
Next time, Louise Hamilton @folkcircus, @flamingJune is taking a trip to the studio so goodies will abound in the not too distant future and the best of luck with it. PS.....no 'moshing'!!
